Hi,

we have the ROW type and we have arrays. We also can create arrays of
rows like:

select array_agg(r)
  from (values (1::int, 'today'::timestamp, 'a'::text),
               (2, 'yesterday', 'b')) r(a,b,c);
                             array_agg
-------------------------------------------------------------------
 {"(1,\"2014-04-30 00:00:00\",a)","(2,\"2014-04-29 00:00:00\",b)"}


Now I want to execute that query via dblink on a remote server. How do I
specify the result type?

select tb.* from dblink( 'dbname=postgres', $$
    select array_agg(r)
      from (values (1::int, 'today'::timestamp, 'a'::text),
$$) tb( WHAT DO I PUT HERE? )

Thanks,
Torsten
